Hi guys
I have the following system:
DFI LanParty 790FX-M3H5
Phenom II X3 720 BE -unlocked to- Phenom II X4 20
2x2GB Corsair Dominator DDR3 1600MHz CL8
After a week long session of overclocking, I started getting a 250mV voltage decrease on the processor each time I reboot. The only workaround is to manually set the voltage on each reboot.
I suspect I fried the MOSFETS, but I didn't find how to do a pencil mod on this MoBo.
I also get memory read/write errors, but I always had those and that's a whole different story for another thread.
The chipset temperature is around 45-55 celsius and the cpu temperature is at 35-48 celsius, depending on load.
What I tried and didn't work:
- underclocking the cpu
- overclocking the cpu
- disabling the 4th core
- increasing and decreasing cpu voltage
- adding a better case cooling system and a chipset fan
- cooling the whole room to 20 Celsius
- applying new thermal paste between the cpu and heatsink
